Comment on How The iPhone 15 Pro camera works and why you’ll want to shoot 24MP photosparentComments−dogma11382yIsn’t sensor reconfiguration still considered digital crop/zoom since it’s not part of the optical element of the camera?When sensors with microlense arrays become more common things will definitely become more complicated tho.We’re probably about 5 years from consumer grade MLA sensors still tho.−astrange2yIt's not part of the optics (since you can't move the lightwells) but I think it's still part of the analog system, so it's different from working on pixel or Bayer values.

When sensors with microlense arrays become more common things will definitely become more complicated tho.
We’re probably about 5 years from consumer grade MLA sensors still tho.
